Methods and Results We demonstrate that in baboon aortic SMCs, IL-1ß enhances the proliferation induced by PDGF-BB independently of PDGF-A signaling. IL-1ß increases the phosphorylation of retinoblastoma protein, a pivotal step in the G1-to-S transition in the cell cycle. Analysis of expression levels of cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitors suggests that IL-1ß stimulates CDKs by downregulating p21 and p27. Consistent with this hypothesis is the finding that CDK2 activity, induced by PDGF-BB, is enhanced 2.3±0.2-fold in the presence of IL-1ß.
Conclusions Our data suggest that IL-1ß may promote SMC proliferation after vascular injury and in atherogenesis by suppression of PDGF-BBinduced p21 and p27.

It is of interest, with respect to disease in humans, that in baboons, antibodies against the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) receptor-ß (PDGFRß) inhibit intimal hyperplasia after arterial balloon injury.4,5 In contrast, blockade of PDGF receptor-
(PDGFR
) has no effect on intimal hyperplasia in that model.5 The PDGF family consists of 4 peptides, PDGF-A, PDGF-B, and the recently described PDGF-C6,7 and PDGF-D chains. 8,9 PDGF binds as a homodimer or heterodimer, and the PDGF receptor ligands identified so far are PDGF-AA, PDGF-BB, PDGF-CC, PDGF-DD, and PDGF-AB dimers. PDGF-A, PDGF-B, and PDGF-C bind to PDGFR
, and PDGF-B and PDGF-D bind to PDGFRß. The principal function of PDGFRß stimulation in vivo appears to be migration, 4,5,1012 although there is evidence that it also mediates proliferation.13,14
A role for interleukin (IL)-1 in neointimal hyperplasia has been proposed on the basis of the presence of macrophages and cytokines in vascular lesions (see reviews1,2) as well as observations made in animal models, including mice15 and pigs.16 IL-1 might influence vascular lesion development by several different mechanisms, including activation of lymphocytes, induction of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 expression, upregulation of adhesion proteins in endothelial cells, and activation of SMCs (see reviews17,18).
IL-1 exists in 2 isoforms, IL-1
and IL-1ß, and in most studies, their biological effects are identical. [IL-1ß is synthesized as a precursor and is cleaved by IL-1converting enzyme, also called caspase-1, to yield the mature, biologically active protein (see review20).] There are 2 IL-1 receptors (IL-1Rs): type-1 IL-1R mediates the biological responses of IL-1, whereas the type-2 IL-1R is a decoy without signaling capabilities (see review19).
Although IL-1 has been shown to promote the progression of vascular lesions in various animal models,15,16 its effects on cultured SMCs are not clear. IL-1 can be mitogenic, but this activity may be masked by the concomitant production of inhibitory prostaglandins.21 Growth-promoting effects of IL-1 are thought to be mediated, at least in part, by expression of the PDGF-A chain.22,23 In the presence of serum, IL-1 may actually inhibit proliferation by inducing the expression of cyclooxygenase-2 and inducible NO synthase.24,25 In combination with PDGF, inhibiting24 as well as activating26,27 effects of IL-1 have been reported without further investigation of the underlying molecular mechanisms.
In the present study, we report that in baboon SMCs, IL-1ß is cooperative with PDGF-BB in inducing DNA synthesis and proliferation. Our data suggest that IL-1ß increases cell cycle progression through G1/S by inhibiting expression of the cell cycledependent kinase (CDK) inhibitors p21(WAF1/CIP1) and p27(KIP1).

were from Celltech.28 All other antibodies were purchased from Santa Cruz Biotechnology. [3H]Thymidine (1 mCi/mL) and [32P]ATP (10 mCi/mL) were from New England Nuclear/Perkin-Elmer Life Sciences. Tissue culture solutions were from GIBCO/Invitrogen Life Technology.
Cell Culture
Baboon aortic SMCs were prepared by using the explant method as described29 and grown in DMEM high glucose supplemented with 10% FBS, 200 U/mL penicillin, and 0.2 mg/mL streptomycin. SMCs between 5 and 16 passages were used for experiments. To achieve quiescence, cells were incubated for 3 days in serum-free MCDB131 supplemented with antibiotics and 2 mmol/L glutamine.
DNA Synthesis
Quiescent SMCs at 50% to 80% confluence were treated as indicated in figure legends and incubated in the presence of [3H]thymidine (1 µCi/mL) for 27 to 32 hours. Cells were washed 3 times in ice-cold PBS before precipitation in 10% trichloroacetic acid overnight at 4°C. Cells were washed once with 10% trichloroacetic acid, and DNA was solubilized in 0.1N NaOH (0.4 mL per well) by incubating plates for 1 hour at room temperature with constant agitation. Radioactivity was analyzed by scintillation counting. Assays were performed in triplicate.
Western Blotting
Quiescent SMCs were stimulated with 10 ng/mL PDGF-BB with or without 0.1 ng/mL IL-1ß. At the time points indicated, cells were washed twice in PBS and lysed in Laemmli buffer containing 2% SDS. Lysates were boiled and subjected to SDS-PAGE (10 to 30 µg protein per lane), followed by Western blotting. Blots were blocked with 5% skim milk in TTBS (25 mmol/L Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 150 mmol/L NaCl, and 0.1% Tween 20) for 1 hour at room temperature and incubated at 4°C overnight with primary antibody (0.1 to 0.5 µg/mL). To remove antibodies between different screens, blots were incubated for 30 minutes at room temperature in stripping buffer (0.1 mol/L glycine, pH 2.8, 0.1% SDS, and 1% Tween 20), followed by extensive washes in TTBS. Protein bands were visualized by enhanced chemiluminescence according to the manufacturers protocol (Amersham/Pharmacia).
CDK2 Assay
After stimulation as indicated, SMCs were washed twice with PBS and harvested in HEB (25 mmol/L HEPES-NaOH, pH 7.5, 10% glycerol, 5 mmol/L EDTA, 5 mmol/L EGTA, 150 mmol/L NaCl, 50 mmol/L NaF, 50 mmol/L pyrophosphate, 1 mmol/L sodium vanadate, 1 mmol/L benzamidine, 0.1% 2-mercaptoethanol, 1% Triton X-100, 1 µmol/L pepstatin A, 2 µg/mL leupeptin, and 20 kallikrein inhibitor units/mL aprotinin). Lysates were cleared by centrifugation for 10 minutes at 14 000 rpm and CDK2-immunoprecipitated (2 µg/mL anti-CDK2). Beads were washed twice in HEB, followed by 2 washes in kinase buffer (20 mmol/L HEPES-NaOH, pH 7.5, 20 mmol/L MgCl2, and 0.1% 2-mercaptoethanol). The kinase reaction occurred in 30 µL on beads in kinase buffer supplemented with 1 µg histone H1 per assay and 0.1 mmol/L [32P]ATP (7000 cpm/pmol) for 30 minutes at 30°C. The reaction was terminated by the addition of 10 µL of 4x Laemmli buffer. Samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Gels were dried, and radioactivity was quantified by phosphorimage analysis (Storm System, Molecular Dynamics). Assays were performed in duplicate.
Quantification and Statistics
Digitized images obtained by phosphorimaging or by scanning blots were quantified with the use of Image Quant software (Amersham Biosciences, Inc). All experiments were performed at least 3 times. Probability values were calculated by using a 1-tailed paired t test. Differences were considered significant at P< 0.05.

After 4 days, PDGF-BB alone increased cell number 180±50% compared with 310±70% with IL-1ß present (Figure 2). As expected from the failure of IL-1ß to stimulate DNA synthesis, the cytokine alone does not induce SMC proliferation.

Stimulatory Effect of IL-1ß Does Involve IL-1R but Not Occupation of PDGFR
To confirm that the effect of IL-1ß is mediated by its binding to type-1 IL-1R, we investigated the effect of the IL-1R antagonist (ILRA). ILRA has a slightly activating effect on PDGF-BBinduced DNA synthesis and almost completely abolishes the cooperative effect of IL-1ß (Figure 3). Because IL-1ß has been reported to induce expression of the PDGF-A chain, we performed blocking experiments with antibodies against PDGFR
, which is the sole receptor for PDGF-A. The antibodies (0.05 mg/mL) do not affect DNA synthesis in response to PDGF-BB whether IL-1ß is present or not (Figure 3). In PDGF-ABstimulated cells, they inhibit 60% of DNA synthesis (Figure 3).
|
IL-1ß Does Not Affect Early Signaling of PDGF-BB
To elucidate the molecular mechanism by which IL-1ß cooperates with PDGF-BB, we investigated whether IL-1ß stimulates early signaling events of PDGF-BB, such as phosphorylation of PDGFRß, ERK1,2, and PKB. None of these reactions induced by PDGF-BB is affected by IL-1ß (Figure 4). IL-1ß alone does not stimulate phosphorylation of PDGFRß or PKB but transiently activates ERK1,2 (Figure 4).

Effects of IL-1ß on pRb Phosphorylation and Expression of Cyclins and CDK Inhibitors in Response to PDGF-BB
Because we did not identify a PDGF signaling pathway affected by IL-1ß, we investigated the effect of the cytokine on retinoblastoma protein (pRb) phosphorylation, which controls the G1-to-S transition in the cell cycle. In experiments in which we harvested SMCs 2, 4, 8, 16, 24, and 32 hours after PDGF-BB stimulation, pRb phosphorylation was first detectable at 8 hours and reached the maximum between 16 and 24 hours (Figure 5). In the presence of IL-1ß, pRb phosphorylation was greatly enhanced at 16, 24, and 32 hours. To investigate the underlying molecular mechanism, we determined the expression levels of cyclins and CDK inhibitors. Surprisingly, we observed reduced levels of cyclin-D1 in the presence of IL-1ß, whereas cyclin-E levels remained unchanged (Figure 5). Cyclin-A expression, which depends on E2F activity and thereby on pRb phosphorylation, is apparent at 24 and 32 hours (Figure 5). As expected, given the activating effect of IL-1ß on pRb phosphorylation, cyclin-A was also increased by the cytokine. Expression of the CDK inhibitors p21 and p27 was negatively affected by IL-1ß. After PDGF-BB stimulation, there were 2 phases of p21 expression: a slight increase up to 8 hours, which was followed by a strong increase within 8 to 32 hours. This latter phase was markedly suppressed in the presence of IL-1ß. p27 levels were prominent in quiescent cells and decreased after stimulation before returning to control levels by 24 hours. In the presence of IL-1ß, p27 levels remained low.

IL-1ß Stimulates CDK2 Activity Induced by PDGF-BB
Given that IL-1ß is inhibitory for cyclin-D1 expression and does not stimulate early pRb phosphorylation (8 hours), we tested the possibility that the IL-1ßmediated downregulation of p21 and p27 increases CDK2 activity. Compared with PDGF-BB alone, costimulation with IL-1ß further enhanced CDK2 activity from 100% to 226±20% (Figure 6). IL-1ß alone had no effect. Western blot analysis of cell extracts demonstrated that IL-1ß does affect the expression levels of CDK2 (Figure 6).

, the sole PDGF receptor for PDGF-A, has no effect on the cooperation of IL-1ß with PDGF-BB (Figure 3) indicates a different mechanism. To elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying the stimula2tory effect of IL-1ß on growth, we investigated early signaling events of PDGF-BB. Phosphorylation of PDGFRß, ERK1,2, or PKB by PDGF-BB was not affected by IL-1ß (Figure 4). As has been seen in other types of cells, IL-1ß transiently activates ERK1,2.30,31 Compared with PDGF-BB, however, IL-1ß is a weak activator of ERK1,2, and it is unlikely that this mechanism accounts for the 3- to 4-fold activation of PDGF-BB induced DNA synthesis by the cytokine.
Given the stimulatory effect of IL-1ß on proliferation and the lack of effect on early PDGF-BB signaling events, we investigated the phosphorylation of pRb, which is a pivotal event in G1-to-S transition in the cell cycle (see reviews32,33). We found that IL-1ß substantially enhances pRb phosphorylation and cyclin-A expression in response to PDGF-BB (Figure 5). Both of these observations are consistent with increased transcriptional activity of E2F, 2inasmuch as cyclin-A is an E2F-dependent gene.34 pRb is phosphorylated by 2 CDK complexes, first by cyclin-Dassociated CDK4 or CDK6 and thereafter by the cyclin-E/CDK2 complex. These kinases are positively regulated by cyclin subunit and are negatively regulated by CDK inhibitors p21 and p27 (see reviews32,33,35). In the presence of PDGF-BB, IL-1ß does not affect the expression of cyclin-E but suppresses the expression of cyclin-D1, which came as a surprise, considering the positive effect of the cytokine on proliferation. We also measured cyclin-Dassociated kinase activity toward the glutathione S-transferasepRb fusion protein. Activities were low, and we did not observe significant differences between PDGF-BBstimulated control cells and cells treated with PDGF-BB plus IL-1ß (authors unpublished data, 2001). The positive effect of IL-1ß on PDGF-BBstimulated proliferation is consistent with the downregulation of p21 and p27 at times when pRb phosphorylation is enhanced. p21 levels were low in quiescent cells and increased after PDGF-BB stimulation as early as after 2 hours. IL-1ß inhibits p21 expression only after 8 hours, which may indicate that early and late expression of p21 by PDGF-BB are controlled by different pathways. Moreover, it has recently been suggested that in PDGF-stimulated SMCs, p21 functions as an assembly factor for cyclin-D1/CDK4 but not cyclin-E/CDK2.36 Thus, we speculate that early expression of p21 may promote cell cycle progression, whereas late expression is inhibitory. In contrast to SMCs, IL-1ß induces p21 in other cell types,3739 clearly indicating that the effect of the cytokine depends on the cellular context. In SMCs, p27 is expressed in quiescent cells, and after PDGF-BB stimulation, expression decreases during G1 and returns to control levels in late S phase. In the presence of IL-1ß, p27 levels remain low. Together, these findings suggest to us that PDGF-BBinduced CDK2 activity is enhanced by IL-1ß. By measuring CDK2 activities after immunoprecipitation of the kinase, we found that CDK2 was 2.3±0.2-fold more active in cells that have been costimulated with IL-1ß and PDGF-BB than in control cells that have been treated with PDGF-BB alone (Figure 6).
In summary, we demonstrate a novel mechanism by which IL-1ß may promote proliferation of SMCs in the presence of PDGF-BB. Our data suggest that IL-1ß counteracts PDGF-BBinduced expression of the CDK inhibitors p21 and p27, thereby further activating CDK2 and promoting cell cycle progression. This mechanism may contribute to SMC proliferation in vascular lesions, where thrombotic and inflammatory stimuli are concurrently generated.
